                   PROTECTING WOMEN'S HEALTH RESEARCH

  (Ms. ROSS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROSS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to join millions of American 
women in condemning Trump's attempt to gut funding for women's health 
research.
  The Trump administration has rescinded women's research projects at 
an alarming rate. These projects include lifesaving research on early 
breast cancer detection and so much more. Trump even shut down the 
Women's Health Initiative, our Nation's largest and most consequential 
women's health study.
  Millions of women's lives are at stake. That is why I led my 
Democratic Women's Caucus colleagues in demanding that Trump 
immediately reverse course. I am relieved to announce that the 
administration heeded our call and the heartfelt appeals of our 
constituents and restored this crucial funding.
  Mr. Speaker, this fight is far from over. The Trump administration is 
waging a war on science and women. We must stay vigilant, and we will 
fight back.
